My cousin wanted me to answer her sociology homework. this is what she got.

One function of family that my own family did not meet was regulation of sexual behaviors. ever since I was 13 I have been sexually active. Although i wouldn't say that my sex encounters were condoned by my family it never was brought to light. Now that I look back on it I wish that my parents would have taken a more active role in my sex life as a young woman. I also believe that because of their failure to control my sexual activities they failed to satisfactorily socialize me to the norms of society. Although they always contributed love and security, and financial assistance I think they failed on the most important function of family.
